Tankoa’s S501 in Final Construction Phase
- By Yachting Staff
- Updated: May 27, 2020
Tankoa Yachts in Italy has resumed work on the 164-foot S501, which is now beginning final construction with crews returning to work from the Covid-19 shutdown.
S501 was started on spec and purchased in March, just before the pandemic struck in Europe. The yacht is a sistership to Bintador and Vertige , with design by Francesco Paszkowski.
The layout on S501 is similar to that of her sisterships, however, the main deck aft is entirely a lounge (the dining room is on the upper deck) and the master stateroom forward has a lounge that converts to an en suite stateroom.
“Although we were effectively obliged to stop work for two months, production is now back on track,” Giuseppe Mazza, Tankoa’s sales manager, stated in a press release. “With construction at more than 75 percent complete, we’re making up for lost time and looking at delivery by the end of the year to allow the owner to use it in the Caribbean”
The yacht’s paint scheme is expected to include a black hull with a metallic gray superstructure. Interior design is by Casadio Miami in the United States.
What is S501’s projected speed? 14 knots at cruise with a 17.5-knot top end, according to Tankoa.

Revealed: Tankoa 50m superyacht Olokun underway
Tankoa’s 50 metre all-aluminium superyacht S501 Olokun has been captured underway for the first time following delivery.
The yacht, which is the third hull in Tankoa’s 50 metre series following Bintador and Vertige , was launched in Genoa on September 12 and sold by Camper & Nicholsons.
Started on spec, Olokun was sold in March 2020 and features a striking black hull and metallic grey superstructure.
Designed by Francesco Paszkowski , Olokun features a layout largely the same as the two sisterships but with two main differences. The main deck aft will be wholly dedicated to a large lounging area while the forward master cabin will feature a private lounge that can be converted into an extra ensuite cabin.
Previously speaking about the alteration, Tankoa chief executive Vincenzo Poerio said: “S501 hull number three was started on spec and the owner came into the project quite late during construction, but as a boutique shipyard we wanted to offer him maximum flexibility to tailor the yacht to his personal needs."
Poerio described the master cabin as "a good example".
"It meant cutting a hole in the bulkhead and re-routing all the wiring so his private office could be converted into a cabin." The interior decor meanwhile has been designed by Casadio Miami.
Power will come from conventional diesel propulsion for a top speed of 17.5 knots and a cruising speed of 14 knots.
